When there aren't extreme values (outliers)
The mean is the measure of central tendency that is most affected by a few large or small numbers. The median is more robust for extreme values.
Central tendency is measured by using the mean, median and mode of a set of numbers. Variation is measured by using the range, variance and standard deviation of a set of numbers.
Mean or average is the most common measure of central tendency of a sample.
average
The average or mean is one measure of central tendency. There are several.
Median
3 common Measure of central tendency are the mean, median and the mode. They are measures in that they tell how how far any given value is from the center of a set of data. For example, the mean is commonly known as the average. Lets say you have the test scores, 25%, 50% , 75% and 100% You wonder how your 50% is compared to the mean? Since the mean is 62.5, you performed "below average." So that measure of central tendency measured how far you were from average. The others do the same thing.
